Shirakura Chi Ebi - rearing feed is a mixed feed, especially designed for baby shrimps with lots of important ingredients, which baby
shrimps need particularly within their first few weeks to ensure a healthy growth.

Apart from that, is also supports the genesis of microorganisms and the
mostly invisible microbes which dispose of food residues and excrements and are an important part of the shrimps' as well as of the baby shrimps' diet.

How
popular and important this is for the shrimps can be witnessed if you carefully dig up the substrate with your hand. It often only takes a few seconds until the shrimps
will gather in exactly this spot to cover their need for animal proteins by eating the now available microorganisms and microbes. In order to ensure this food basis
permanently and in sufficient amounts, it is recommended to regularly feed Chi Ebi (Please also see feeding recommendations).

Study of
the University for Fisheries Science

Studies by students of the University for Fisheries Science in Hokkaido/Japan have shown that in those aquariums where Shirakura's
Chi Ebi - rearing feed was used, significantly more baby shrimps survived and also developed better than in aquariums without the additional feeding of
Chi Ebi. In their microscopical research they discovered that the population of the microorganisms which are particularly important for baby shrimps
was more than ten times higher when feeding Chi Ebi than in a comparable aquarium without Chi Ebi. Further observations and positive
side effects were the enhanced colour of the shrimps as well as crystal clear water.
